The Liberty Hotel Boston When we were planning a trip to Boston for a little getaway, my husband told me that we should check out this cool hotel he had heard about. The Liberty Hotel used to be the Charles Street Jail, which was built in 1851. They transformed this place into a luxury hotel!

I’ve seen Fleur de Sal (salt) topped on truffles before, so I knew it wouldn’t be that much of a stretch to pair the salty/sweet in a brownie. Toffee bits and pretzel pieces within make for a thick batter. I spread it out evenly in a half-sheet pan, but if you don’t have one then you can use a 9×9-inch pan. If you use the square pan, you’ll get brownies that are a little thicker....

There are two very popular types of Thai chicken. One is Gai Yang which I shared previously which has lemongrass in the marinade so it has an earthy lemon flavour that is so distinctly South East Asian. And this Southern Thai Chicken which is quite different because it has turmeric in it, and no lemongrass. Lemongrass is a distinctly South East Asian herb which I absolutely love but does not make my standard weekly shop....

Preparation If you find yourself making the same New Year’s resolutions year after year without success—lose 10 pounds, clean out the basement, organize your digital photos, start a meditation practice—then it’s time to rethink your approach. “In my experience, there are a few common culprits for why people don’t keep their resolutions—or achieve goals in general,” says productivity expert Maura Thomas. “If you’re making the same resolution that you didn’t achieve last year, the first step is to assess what you did last year and where it fell apart, and make a specific plan for how you will do things differently this year....

There are just so many fantastic recipes to choose from. There’s the obvious (but still delicious) stuff like gumbo, jambalaya, rice, beignets, and pralines.

It took me quite some time, but I was finally able to narrow down a list of 25 of my favorite New Orleans/Cajun recipes....
